Depth

Keep only organisms above the depth at which we want to predict poc export, i.e. 1000 m.

o <- o %>% filter(depth < max_depth_uvp)

Taxa

List taxa, merge contextual observations with regular observations. Remove some unwanted taxa: tentacles of Cnidaria (only part of organisms, not representative of the overall morphology), Trichodesmium, Nostocales and Bacillariophyta (phytoplankton).

Profiles

Compute the number of objects per profile and keep only profiles that have more than 10 objects.

Caution

TODO: minimum number of objects to keep in a profiles.

profiles <- o %>% 
  group_by(profile_id, lon, lat, datetime) %>% 
  summarise(n_obj = n()) %>% 
  ungroup()

profiles %>% 
  ggplot() +
  geom_histogram(aes(x = n_obj), bins = 50) +

  scale_x_continuous(expand = c(0, 0)) + scale_y_continuous(expand = c(0, 0)) +
  coord_quickmap()

# Keep only profiles with enough objects
profiles <- profiles %>% filter(n_obj > n_min_uvp) %>% select(-n_obj)

# Drop objects that do not belong to these profiles
o <- o %>% filter(profile_id %in% profiles$profile_id)

We have 320927 objects belonging to 2876 profiles.

Trophic diversity

Morphological diversity

Based on:

• https://github.com/jiho/ptb_morphodiv/tree/master

• Beck et al. 2023

Features

Some features are not meaningful for the morphology and thus should be removed. Other features have a unique value for all individuals and other are missing for many individuals. Let’s remove them.

# Select features
# NB this excludes ratio of features, e.g. kurt_mean which is kurt/mean
x <- o %>% select(area:circex)

# Remove variables with zero variance
feats <- x %>%
  summarise_all(var, na.rm = TRUE) %>%
  pivot_longer(cols = everything()) %>%
  filter(value > 0) %>%
  pull(name)

# Remove additional features that are relative to position within image
feats <- feats[!feats %in% c("angle", "tag", "centroids", "xmg5", "ymg5")]

x <- x %>% select(all_of(feats))

Plot features distributions.

x %>%
  pivot_longer(cols = everything()) %>%
  ggplot() +
  geom_histogram(aes(x = value), bins = 50) +
  facet_wrap(~name, scales = "free")

For a PCA, features should be normally-distributed. Let’s apply some transformation to get closer to normal distribution:

• mask extreme values

• normalize using the Yeo-Johnson transformation

• replace missing values by the mean of each column

x_norm <- x %>%
  # remove the most extreme high values
  mutate_all(mask_extreme, percent = c(0, 0.5)) %>%
  # normalise using the Yeo-Johnson transformation
  mutate_all(yeo_johnson) %>%
  mutate_all(as.numeric)

# Replace NA by average of each column
for (col in names(x_norm)) {
  x_norm[[col]][is.na(x_norm[[col]])] <- mean(x_norm[[col]], na.rm=TRUE)
}

Plot “normalized” features.

x_norm %>%
  pivot_longer(cols = everything()) %>%
  ggplot() +
  geom_histogram(aes(x = value), bins = 50) +
  facet_wrap(~name, scales = "free")

Morphospace

Build

Let’s feed the features to a PCA to build a morphospace.

# We need to use "scale.unit = TRUE" to center-scale all feature
mo_space <- FactoMineR::PCA(x_norm, scale.unit = TRUE, graph = FALSE)

Eigenvalues

Plot the eigenvalues.

eig <- mo_space$eig %>%
  as.data.frame() %>%
  rownames_to_column(var = "comp") %>%
  as_tibble() %>%
  mutate(
    comp = str_remove(comp, "comp "),
    comp = as.numeric(comp),
    comp = as.factor(comp)
    ) %>% 
  rename(var = `percentage of variance`, cum_var = `cumulative percentage of variance`)

eig %>%
  ggplot() +
  geom_col(aes(x = comp, y = eigenvalue)) +
  geom_hline(yintercept = 1, col = "red", linewidth = 0.5) +
  theme_classic() +
  scale_y_continuous(expand = c(0, 0)) +
  labs(x = "PC", y = "Eigenvalue") +
  theme(axis.text.x = element_text(angle = 90, vjust = 0.5, hjust=1))

Most of the variance is captured by the first three axes (0.35, 0.19 and 0.097respectively).

Let’s plot this in log to have a better idea of PCs to select.

eig %>%
  ggplot() +
  geom_path(aes(x = as.numeric(comp), y = eigenvalue)) +
  geom_point(aes(x = as.numeric(comp), y = eigenvalue)) +
  geom_vline(xintercept = 5, colour = "red") +
  theme_classic() +
  scale_x_log10() +
  scale_y_log10() +
  labs(x = "PC", y = "Eigenvalue") +
  theme(axis.text.x = element_text(angle = 90, vjust = 0.5, hjust=1))

It’s linear until ~5, let’s keep the first 5 PCs.

Features and axis definition

Let’s now plot the first two axes.

plot(mo_space, choix="var", axes = c(1, 2))

• PC1: big objects in positive values, small objects in negative values.

• PC2: clear (i.e. transparent) objects in positive values, dark (i.e. opaque) objects in negative values

As well as axes 3 and 4.

plot(mo_space, choix="var", axes = c(3, 4))

• PC3: elongated objects in positive values, round objects in negative values
• PC4: something with grey levels

Individuals

Let’s extract the coordinates of individuals in the morphospace.

## Get coordinates of individuals
inds <- mo_space$ind$coord %>% as_tibble()
# Set nice names for columns
colnames(inds) <- str_c("mo_dim", paste(c(1:ncol(inds))))
# And join with initial dataframe of objects
o <- o %>%
  bind_cols(inds)

We can not plot the position of objects in the morphospace, coloured per profile.

## Plot invidivuals with profile as colour
o %>%
  ggplot(aes(x = mo_dim1, y = mo_dim2, colour = profile_id)) +
  geom_point(show.legend = FALSE, size = 0.5, alpha = 0.05)

Tiling

Let’s now tile morphs within the morphological space.

# Folder containing images
img_dir <- "~/Documents/Data/UVP5/images/"

# Number of features to select
n_feat <- 12

# Generate path to image
o <- o %>% mutate(path_to_img = str_c(img_dir, profile_id, "/", object_id, ".jpg"), .before = object_id) 

# Prepare a circle for the plot
circ <- circleFun(c(0, 0), 2, npoints = 500)


# Get variables contributions
#to select vars based on contribution to each plane
contribs <- as.data.frame(mo_space$var$contrib) %>% as.data.frame()
colnames(contribs) <- str_c("mo_dim", paste(c(1:ncol(contribs))))
contribs <- contribs %>% 
  rownames_to_column(var = "feature") %>% 
  as_tibble() %>% 
  mutate(
    mo_dim_12 = abs(mo_dim1) + abs(mo_dim2),
    mo_dim_23 = abs(mo_dim2) + abs(mo_dim3),
    mo_dim_34 = abs(mo_dim3) + abs(mo_dim4)
  )


# List variables with higher contribution for plane 1:2
var_contrib_12 <- contribs %>% 
  arrange(desc(mo_dim_12)) %>% 
  slice(1:n_feat) %>% 
  pull(feature)

# and for plane 3:4
var_contrib_34 <- contribs %>% 
  arrange(desc(mo_dim_34)) %>% 
  slice(1:n_feat) %>% 
  pull(feature)

# Get types of features
feat_types <- read_csv("data/raw/features_qual.csv", show_col_types = FALSE)
# Set colour per type of feature, using a named vector
feat_colours <- brewer_colors(length(unique(feat_types$type)), "Set2") # pick the appropriate number of colours
names(feat_colours) <- sort(unique(feat_types$type)) # add names to colours

#homogenize scaling between individuals & variables for correct biplot
# Change scaling of variables/columns from scaling 1 to 2
var_scores <- as.data.frame(t(t(mo_space$var$coord) / sqrt(mo_space$eig[,1]))) # de-scale
var_scores_2 <- as.data.frame(t(t(var_scores) * sqrt(nrow(var_scores) * mo_space$eig[,1]))) # re-scale
# Rename columns
colnames(var_scores_2) <- str_c("mo_dim", paste(c(1:ncol(var_scores_2))))
# Add feature names 
var_scores_2 <- var_scores_2 %>% 
  rownames_to_column(var = "feature") %>% 
  as_tibble() %>% 
  # and types
  left_join(feat_types, by = join_by(feature))

# Compute length of projection to scale circle
var_scores_2 <- var_scores_2 %>% 
  mutate(
    len_12 = sqrt(mo_dim1^2 + mo_dim2^2),
    len_34 = sqrt(mo_dim3^2 + mo_dim4^2),
  )

Objects in morphospace for axes 1:2

k <- max(var_scores_2$len_12) # adapt scaling of circle to fit the arrows
p12 <- ggmorph_tile(mo_space, o$path_to_img, steps = 10, n_imgs = 3, fun = preprocess, dimensions = c(1,2), scale = 0.02) 
p12 + 
  geom_path(data = circ, aes(x = x*k, y = y*k), lty = 2, color = "grey", alpha = 0.7) + 
  geom_hline(yintercept = 0, color="grey", alpha = 0.9) +
  geom_vline(xintercept = 0, color="grey", alpha = 0.9) +
  geom_segment(data = var_scores_2 %>% filter(feature %in% var_contrib_12), aes(x = 0, xend = mo_dim1, y = 0, yend = mo_dim2, colour = type), arrow = arrow(length = unit(0.025, "npc"), type = "open")) +
  geom_text_repel(data = var_scores_2 %>% filter(feature %in% var_contrib_12), aes(x = mo_dim1, y = mo_dim2, label = feature, colour = type), show.legend = FALSE) +
  scale_colour_manual(values = feat_colours) +
  labs(colour = "Feature\ntype")

• PC1 = size

• PC2 = transparency

Objects in morphospace for axes 2:3

k <- max(var_scores_2$len_34) # adapt scaling of circle to fit the arrows
p34 <- ggmorph_tile(mo_space, o$path_to_img, steps = 10, n_imgs = 3, fun = preprocess, dimensions = c(3,4), scale = 0.02) 
p34 + 
  geom_path(data = circ, aes(x = x*k, y = y*k), lty = 2, color = "grey", alpha = 0.7) + 
  geom_hline(yintercept = 0, color="grey", alpha = 0.9) +
  geom_vline(xintercept = 0, color="grey", alpha = 0.9) +

  scale_colour_manual(values = feat_colours) +
  labs(colour = "Feature\ntype")

• PC3 = elongation

• PC4 = heterogeneity of grey levels

TODO: Look for missing files.

Diversity

Morphospace features

We can collect the position of objects in the morphospace to summarise the morphological diversity of each profile.

# Compute mean and sd of dim1, dim2, dim3 and dim4 per profile
mo_div_prof <- o %>% 
  group_by(profile_id, lon, lat) %>% 
  summarise(across(mo_dim1:mo_dim4, list(mean = mean, sd = sd))) %>% 
  ungroup()

# And store this with profiles data
profiles <- profiles %>% left_join(mo_div_prof, by = join_by(profile_id, lon, lat))

And we can plot maps of mean dim1 and dim2 values for each profile.

ggmap(
  profiles, 
  "mo_dim1_mean", 
  type = "point", 
  palette = div_pal
  ) +
  labs(colour = "PC1\nSize")

ggmap(
  profiles, 
  "mo_dim2_mean", 
  type = "point", 
  palette = div_pal
  ) +
  labs(colour = "PC2\nTransparency")

ggmap(
  profiles, 
  "mo_dim3_mean", 
  type = "point", 
  palette = div_pal
  ) +
  labs(colour = "PC3\nElongation")

ggmap(
  profiles, 
  "mo_dim4_mean", 
  type = "point", 
  palette = div_pal
  ) +
  labs(colour = "PC4\nGrey hetero.")

We can also look at variance within profiles.

ggmap(
  profiles, 
  "mo_dim1_sd", 
  type = "point"
  ) +
  labs(colour = "PC1 sd\nSize")

ggmap(
  profiles, 
  "mo_dim2_sd", 
  type = "point"
  ) +
  labs(colour = "PC2 sd\nTransparency")

ggmap(
  profiles, 
  "mo_dim3_sd", 
  type = "point"
  ) +
  labs(colour = "PC3 sd\nElongation")

ggmap(
  profiles, 
  "mo_dim4_sd", 
  type = "point"
  ) +
  labs(colour = "PC4 sd\nGrey hetero.")

Metrics

Multivariate morphological diversity metrics have been defined in Beck et al. 2023 following the definition of multivariate functional diversity metrics in Villeger et al. 2008:

• morphological richness

• morphological evenness

• morphological divergence

Actually there is now a R package to compute these metrics. See Magneville et al. 2021 as well as mFD package. Yay!

Computing these metrics require defining “morphs” (i.e. morphologically similar organisms) in the morphospace, i.e. using kmeans. These morphs are then used instead of species to compute morphological diversity metrics.

Define morphs

Define morphs using kmeans, in parallel.

If we retain n morphospace axes, then we need at least n+1 morphs to be present in each profile (to compute a convex hull in n dimensions, we need n+1 points).

# Number of clusters
n_clust <- 200

# Perform clustering
morphs <- wkmeans::wkmeans(
  x = o %>% select(contains("dim")), # use PCA outputs
  k = n_clust, # number of clusters
  nstart = 50, # number of random initialisations, higher is better
  cores = n_cores
  )

# Add cluster to table of objects
o <- o %>% mutate(
  morph = morphs$cluster,
  morph = str_pad(morph, width = nchar(n_clust), pad = "0"), # add leading zeros
  morph = paste0("morph_", morph), # Add "morph_" in front
  morph = as.factor(morph) # convert to factor
)

Look at size of generated morphs (the red vertical line shows the expected mean).

morphs_size <- morphs$size %>% 
  as.data.frame() %>% 
  as_tibble() %>% 
  rename(morph = Var1, n = Freq)

Relation between morph, taxa and profiles.

Number of individuals of each taxon per morph.

# Counts per morph and per taxa

The median of number of taxa per morph is 18: morphs are not representative of taxa.

In how many morphs is a taxa present?

# Counts per taxa
counts_t <- counts_mo_t %>% count(taxon)
ggplot(counts_t) +

Gymnosomata and Cephalopoda are present in less than 50 morphs, while Copepoda are present in all of them.

Number of morphs per profile. This limits the number of dimensions we can use to compute metrics. We need at least n+1 morphs per profile with n the number of dimensions.

count_p_m <- o %>% count(profile_id, morph)
count_p <- count_p_m %>% count(profile_id) %>% arrange(n)

count_p %>% 
  ggplot() +
  geom_histogram(aes(x = n, fill = n >= 6 ), bins = 50) +
  geom_vline(xintercept = 6, colour = "red")

The red line shows the minimum number of morphs that must be present in each profile in order to compute morphological diversity metrics using 5 morphospace axes.

Compute metrics

We need the following matrices:

• traits values for each morph centre (morphs × traits)

• morphs assemblages (profiles × morphs)

The following metrics are computed (see Magneville et al. 2022):

• fric (functional richness): The volume of the convex hull shaping the species present in the assemblage
• fide (functional identity): The weighted average position of species of the assemblage along each axis. NB: note computed as we already have individuals projections on PCA axes.
• fdis (functional dispersion): The weighted deviation to center of gravity (i.e. defined by the FIde values) of species in the assemblage
• fdiv (functional divergence): The deviation of biomass-density to the center of gravity of the vertices shaping the convex hull of the studied assemblage
• feve (functional evenness): The regularity of biomass-density distribution along the minimum spanning tree (i.e. the tree linking all species of the assemblage with the lowest cumulative branch length) for the studied assemblage
• fori (functional originality): The weighted mean distance to the nearest species from the global species pool
• fspe (functional specialisation): The weighted mean distance to the centroid of the global species pool (i.e. center of the functional space)
• fmpd (functional mean pairwise distance): The mean weighted distance between all pairs of species
• fnnd (functional mean nearest neighbour distance): The weighted distance to the nearest neighbour within the assemblage

# Matrix of trait values for each morph, i.e. centers of morphs in mspace
# - rows = morphs
# - columns = traits

mo_coord <- as_tibble(morphs$centers) %>%
  mutate(
    morph = row_number(),
    morph = str_pad(morph, width = nchar(n_clust), pad = "0"),
    morph = paste0("morph_", morph)
    ) %>%
  column_to_rownames("morph") %>%
  as.matrix()

# Matrix summarising morphs assemblages
# - rows = profiles (as row names)
# - columns = morphs

  # concentration per date per morph
  group_by(profile_id, morph) %>%

  # convert to wide format and fill with 0s
  pivot_wider(names_from = morph, values_from = n, values_fill = 0) %>%

# Compute diversity metrics, which takes a looooooooong time
morpho_div <- alpha.fd.multidim(
  sp_faxes_coord = mo_coord,

  # rename metrics from functional to morphological
  set_names(~ str_replace_all(., "^f", "mo_")) 

# And add to table of profiles
profiles <- profiles %>% 
  left_join(morpho_div, by = join_by(profile_id))

Plot maps of resulting morphological diversity metrics

ggmap(profiles, var = "mo_ric", type = "point")

ggmap(profiles, var = "mo_dis", type = "point")

ggmap(profiles, var = "mo_div", type = "point")

ggmap(profiles, var = "mo_eve", type = "point")

ggmap(profiles, var = "mo_ori", type = "point")

ggmap(profiles, var = "mo_spe", type = "point")

ggmap(profiles, var = "mo_mpd", type = "point")

ggmap(profiles, var = "mo_nnd", type = "point")

Let’s rename morphospace axes according to what we found to make them more meaningful.

profiles <- profiles %>% 
  rename(
    mo_size_mean = mo_dim1_mean,  # size (positive values = bigger)
    mo_grey_mean = mo_dim2_mean,  # grey (positive values = transparent, i.e. higher grey values)
    mo_elon_mean = mo_dim3_mean,  # elongation (positive values = elongated)
    mo_ghet_mean  = mo_dim4_mean, # grey heterogeneous (positive values = heterogeneous)
    mo_size_sd = mo_dim1_sd,
    mo_grey_sd = mo_dim2_sd,
    mo_elon_sd = mo_dim3_sd,
    mo_ghet_sd  = mo_dim4_sd,
  )
